A pulley system has an efficiency of 74.2%. If you perform 200 J of work, how much useful work does the pulley perform?

1 answer:

7 0

Efficiency is the measure of how efficient a process is. It is used to assess the ability of a process in avoiding waste energy, materials, money and time in doing a desirable output. It is calculated as;

Efficiency = useful energy ouput / total energy input

.742 = useful energy / 200 J
Useful energy = 148.4 J <-----------OPTION B

If you have two objects on the edge of a cliff, how can you determine which one has the most potential energy?

True [87]

Answer: now take this with a grain of salt because I'm in middle school but I think that the more massive object has more potential energy.

All isotopes of a particular element have the same atomic number. How then do the isotopes of a particular element differ?

xz_007 [3.2K]

Isotopes of an element will contain the same number of protons and electrons but will differ in the number of neutrons they contain. In other words, isotopes have the same atomic number because they are the same element but have a different atomic mass because they contain a different number of neutrons

Ten identical steel wires have equal lengths L and equal "spring constants" k. The Young's modulus of each wire is Y. The wires

svlad2 [7]

Answer:

option (B)

Explanation:

Young's modulus is defined as the ratio of longitudinal stress to the longitudinal strain.

Its unit is N/m².

The formula for the Young's modulus is given by

$Y=\frac{F \times L}{A\times \delta L}$

where, F is the force applied on a rod, L is the initial length of the rod, ΔL is the change in length of the rod as the force is applied, A is the area of crossection of the rod.

It is the property of material of solid. So, when the 10 wires are co joined together to form a new wire of length 10 L, the material remains same so the young' modulus remains same.
